PLEASE RELEASE ME There are many reasons why gripping the butt cheeks becomes a habit; Sitting more than moving The shifting centre of gravity in pregnancy... Carrying and holding babies Pain Incontinence Pelvic organ prolapse Fear Previous falls Surgeries Car accidents Tight hamstrings I could go on... I want you to stand up...yep...now.... I'll wait... Ok now put your finger tips on your pubic joint and keep them there as you nod your pubic joint forward (downward toward the floor until your hip bones are in the same plane as your pubic joint). Now back your pelvis up as a whole unit until your perineum is over the space between your ankles. Now blossom your butt cheeks. Imagine space in your butt crack. Imagine your sitz bones gliding away from one another. Yes it might feel like you are sticking your butt out because it is such an escape from where you habitually hold yourself. I put on my muscle pants and it may be difficult to see the butt crack but look at the upper inner thighs. Can you see the difference? Often when we grip in the glutes we grip elsewhere too...posterior pelvic floor, inner thighs, belly... Check in with your posture daily. How do you hold your pelvis? If you find it challenging to blossom your butt cheeks work on lengthening your hamstrings & doing the posterior pelvic floor release (head over to YouTube). See more

Are you stressed out? Emotional stress will create physical problems. The picture below shows the organs innervated by the Vagus nerve. They rely on good vagus... nerve supply in order to function properly. Your vagus nerve starts shutting down when you’re under stress, affecting everything it supplies. But...the Vagus nerve can get woken up by doing certain things. Concentrating on proper breathing is one. Getting specific types of hands-on therapy is another - Bowen is perfect See more
